Fuji Q Highland's Eejanaika 4D Coaster

[M0NSTERENERGYDRINK]

this looks fun as hell

[transformerfish]

x2 copy



[megmayhem1]

I was just in japan and i did this roller coaster. AMAZING

[presunt0o]

OMG!

[Killuminatyi]

Why is it "4D"?

[Mrcharlez14]

@Killuminatyi I Think Because it Hangs You, its A Zac Spin Style Coaster And A Diving Coaster + The Style Of The Tack idk xD :DD

[RidesRUs99]

This ride was already red + black, then X2 came.

[crazychrzkidd]

@RidesRUs99 X2 was the first coaster of its kind, so this ride was after X2.

[iTomzXD]

that dosent look like the Guiness World Record of ''14 inversions'' O_O

[japan543]

i went to Fuji japan i go there evr summer :o

[DanteDevil2727]

Dang Japan... they just had call arrow dynamics and copy what califonia already has.

[LegoThemeparkCrazy]

@DanteDevil2727 Arrow dynamics didn't make this ride, this version is made by S&S.

[theguywhokillyou]

@DanteDevil2727 actually S&S Arrow

[X2obsessed]

Damn Japanese always jocking us when we do something cool they just have 2 kill it, besides X2 is beastier and cooler, but there is one thing I have 2 say, it was going 2 happen 1 day, everyone is goin 2 have 1 now.

[MrLegendpk]

@X2obsessed x2 is a fucking beast damn right best ride i agree with everything u say

[zookeychan]

@X2obsessed You do realize the same AMERICAN company built X2 and Eejanaika right? If you are **REALLY** a fan of X2 you should be a fan of S&S group, the pioneers behind both of these amazing coasters. S&S is also building a 3rd one in China right now and ALL THREE have different track layouts. Or, would you rather S&S spend millions to invent a new coaster type then lose money by only making 1 in the world for fear of pissing people off on YouTube?

[killwize]

@zookeychan Arrow dynamics designed the 4D coaster but it bankrupt them... S&S just bought the designs and ran with it. I believe that this coaster only has 2 differences in the track layout compared to X2. This coaster is almost completely of Arrow design even the first generation cars are of Arrow Design. X2's new cars are the best example of S&S's improvements to date.

[zookeychan]

@killwize The track layouts are more different than that (but still establish a general rule that, if you look from the sky, it seems to form a giant letter U) ---Eejaniaka is a little bigger--I wish S&S would go add the X2 seats to Eejanaika--it would make it a little more fun-S&S actually bought all of Arrow and, for a long time, they were called S&S Arrow---but yeah S&S is damn good at what they do-LOL I had no plans to ever visit China until they said S&S was building a new 4D coaster there

[theguywhokillyou]

@X2obsessed eejanaika is better than x2 in every way, taller, faster, more inversions

[RCJPistolPete89]

Thats like the second best coaster I've ever rode. Right behind the Millenium Force, I laughed the entire time same as the people in the video

[zookeychan]

@RCJPistolPete89 LMAO the only reason I know Eejanaika's layout is from YouTube videos--when I actually rode it the whole thing was a freakin' blur!! Way faster feeling than X2---I really hope Fuji-Q has S&S come back and add the 3rd generation trains to Eejanaika--that'd be sweet! Did you buy the keychains they had there of the little Eejanaika cars that flip?

[RCJPistolPete89]

@zookeychan Nay I had to dip to catch my bus 10 mikes afer I got off. In line for 3 and a half hours but it was so worthi it

[zookeychan]

@RCJPistolPete89 Oh yeah hehe!!! If you're ever in Valencia, California check out X2---it's cool to see where Eejanaika came from ;-) they're building a 3rd one of these in China now too (S&S got contracted to do it, so it's a true 3rd 4rth Dimension coaster not some knock off)

[THEBOBBYCHANNEL1]

im sry but freakin japanese keep jocking us god makes we want 2 g insane the japanese jock our x2 and freakin a no its not the best park or best ride six flags magic mountain is the best park and x2 is the best ride ever

[zookeychan]

@THEBOBBYCHANNEL1 You do realize that the same people who built X2 built Eejanaika right? And you do realize that park had the tallest coaster in the world until Magic Mountain built Goliath--so there is competition across the board and companies NOT THE PARKS build coasters---if you want to be a real coaster fan be a fan of the companies more--Eejanaika is just as good as X2 (in some regards, better--although X2's presentation is flawless).

[SamuraiSentai]

This place is now officially on my "places to visit" list when i go to Japan next year, purely because this coaster looks NUTS. It's like a mix of AIR and Nemesis, both at Alton Towers, and i enjoyed both of them.

[likeineeduraproval]

@SamuraiSentai yah u shuld totally go

i used to live in japan and trust me this ride is as bomb as it gets! i friggen love it

[zookeychan]

@SamuraiSentai Wait until you see their other 2 :-) Look up FujiYama and DoDonPa--both at this park too---DoDonPa is the world's fastest accelerating coaster--0-107MPH in 1.8 seconds--OMG! Also, when you go to Japan, check out Tokyo (2 hours away from this park---this park is at Mt. Fuji)---at the Tokyo Dome they have the Thunder Dolphin, the world's 5th tallest coaster, it dives through a mall and a centerless ferris wheel!

[robertforgotton]

best park ever

i rode 14 times

[3nnrYkqu3]

haha

no ma, esa si es una buena montaña rusa :D

lo malo es ke me keda muy lejos de mi kasa

XD

haha

se siente feo??¿¿

les kedaron ganas de subirse-??¿¿

[batmanairborne]

I went to Fuji q highland 3 times while i was there for 4 months. Best theme park I've ever been to. The only thing that sucks is the lines wish they did it like we do here in the USA

[KatalinaK16]

craaaaaaappp. This makes U.S.A coasters look like the tea cups

[SevenFlags123]

This is exactly like X2 at SFMM.

[zookeychan]

@SevenFlags123 Actually the lay out is different, Eejanaika is taller, longer, has a banked turn with the edges touching the ground and goes upside down 14 times (guinness world record holder) where X2 goes upside down 2 times---X2 (back when it was just X) was the prototype and Eejanaika is the second generation, with X2 kinda being a 2.5 generation (first generation track layout, 3rd generation trains).

[thedimeckks]

@zookeychan  wtf u dont make sense

[zookeychan]

@thedimeckks What do you mean? I am comparing and contrasting Eejanaika and X2, 2 4rth dimension coasters--I am not sure how I can be more plain on it. Maybe you're jumping in halfway in a conversation and getting confused?

[tanmika16]

looks so scary!

[babystinky]

that is scary man.

[lorenzol1996]

S&S Arrow used plans for X2 to build this

[ThePirateprincess23]

You mean the plans for X because X came first and then was transformed in to X2 in 2008.

[JenehIsUber]

shit man.

does not look safe.

[SynForce]

good vid and awsome ride. tho you should learn about dimensions before posting anything about it. 4th dimension = the 3d dimension that we are currently living in + the ability to travel trough time. 5th dimension is traveling trough time so that we can encounter ourselves (future or past selves) and so on.. (there are 10 proven to exist dimensions, tho not yet realised)

[solacaMovies]

true :)

[ting1337]

They call it the 4D coaster because unlike conventional roller coasters that just follows the track with fixed seats, this ride has the capability to change seating orientation. The riders are literally facing down looking at the ground as they approach the drops. The seats can spin around during any part of the ride. I didn't even know if i was facing the sky or the ground when I rode it because it just keeps spinning. Scared the hell outta me.

[halodude1177]

I almost shit my pants. That ride was to insane.

[kaateexx]

I loved this ride, ahah the drop is so scaryy

[frohawkk]

this coaster was pretty bad ass

[emicrombie]

i rode this this last summer... it was truly amazing!! every seat is different and it is just so much fun! i didn't get to ride dodompa but fujiyama was also amazing!

[SoleSurvivor223]

That is X!

[QUELeDog]

Been to japan 6 times, and MAN OH MAN! i always go to fujikyu highlands for 2 days, Eejanaika, Dodompa, and the fujiyama are pure drugs. i will go again this year, its the meca of coaster lovers! I RECOMMEND BIG TIME! LONG LIVE TO THE JAPANESE PEOPLES!

[bubbleboy97]

i thought the only 4d coasters were x and x2! are there anymore?

[Germathon]

x and x2 are the same ride...and this is the only other one

[DziadekEdek]

4d ? what, do you travel through time ?

[nakomaru]

Yep, you go forward into earth's timeframe directly linearly.

[Maxibonbons]

The chairs rotate on their axis.

[bubbleside]

Wow.. Heavy!

[swisscheesepotatochi]

extreme!

[adrianistico]

eso si es una montaña rusa en condiciones

jojojojojo

[0Erazoender0]

holy shit I could not tell which way is which.

[sharpproductions]

Awesome Video!!! The track looks only slightly different from X2 though.. you'd think they would change it up a little.

[groupieoftheyear]

damn this coaster is really silent have you heard x talk about loud

[superlegostarwars]

well, X was only a prototype, and it was built a lot longer ago. X2 Is now alot smoother and better than eejanaika. Check it Out

[pugsrule97]

im so glad someone actually got a good pov from this ride

[CyberSlayerNo1]

I can only imagine how much fun this ride must be!!

Wish I could go to Japan to experience it.

It actually looks scarier to me than Kingda Ka!

[SophiaMaria023]

OMG'!

WOW.

:O

[raclip02]

x at sfmm was first

[rainbowsmiles11]

omg i would die on that ride and i realy love rollercoasters!

[kumiko277]

Awesome ^^, yeah!. Great coaster

[TriKxBeats]

Gotta go to Japan

[DevinCrawford]

[brnigirl78]
